Default Turbo Tuning in North Texas

It's been awhile since I have been on the truck side due to the build of my 02 Trans am with LSX/Precision 106 but I had alot of extra parts due to changing the direction of the t/a build. So with a brand new ls2 block, Manley crank and rods, custom set of J&E pistons for boost, stage 3 wcch L92s and a 4l80e with a transbrake, I figured I'd have a good start on another project so I bought a 2001 GMC Sierra regular cab short bed to cram all this stuff into. Rick @ Trick Performance is going to be putting together a turbo kit for it and my "goal" is to have a truck with a/c and overdrive and make 1000 rwhp. Why 1000 rwhp??? Just to say it makes a 1000 hp I guess?? Haha. Once I get all the engine in and running, we are going to narrow a ford 9" rear end and 4 link and coil over it with a mini tub for some large drag radials. Now to the question, who is a awesome tuner to tune this thing?? Here in Wichita Falls Tx, no one has the knowledge to tuning turbo ****. I am willing to load up and take it anywhere or pay someone to come here??? I have full access to a Dynojet chassis Dyno if it makes a difference. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'll start the picture progress once I roll it in the shop.

ChucksLSXTuning out of Houston but he might be down for traveling and there's Sam Miller here in North Texas. There's James Karger in DFW too who's good too

Chuck is a great choice. I do really like what the skinny white guy himself has done. (Swg performance.)

my buddy had his 1100+ CTS-V tuned by Karger, as others said, Sam is great too.

Banker099 can't do a turbo tune out there by you?

Check with True Street in Mckinney, not sure how great Sean (iirc) is, but I have heard a few good things about him as well.
